On the ipad (or even iphone), does anyone know of a way to "lock" only one of my home screens? I have a 4 yr old son and would love to be able to have just a screen of his apps, so he can't have access to all my stuff and accidently delete / move things. Also, this would be a great way to be able to "share" an ipad with others, without them having access to your personal stuff.
THANKS!
iPad 2, iOS 5.0.1
To the best of my knowledge, you cant' do that. The closest you can come is under settings and restrictions and you can lock out the ability to delete apps, etc.
If an app is age restricted you can lock some of those down (for example the dexter app is 17+ but I believe I can lock it out if I wanted to, I'd have to enter a passcode to access it)
As far as I know the restrictions is the only real 'net nanny' for the iPad.
At its most basic, the iPad is designed to be a single user device, so there's no real accommodation for multiple accounts and multiple levels of access
It's not currently possible to lock one page. You can use Settings > General > Restrictions > Deleting Apps 'off' to prevent him deleting apps, and some apps can also be hidden via the same Restrictions screen. But the iPad is essentially a single user device, so what you can hide/protect is limited.
App to "lock" only a specific home page?
